The Employee Self Service (ESS) Portal is
designed to provide you the employees with access to manage or view
personal data, benefits elections, withholdings, etc. ESS will allow
you the employee the ability to update and view personal data on-line
24/7 at any workstation or home computer equipped with Internet
Connect.

Validity Start Date:
The validity start date of a record reflects the date the record
was changed, or the date your information was converted to ESS.

Validity End Date: The
End Date of the employee data will go to infinity (12/31/9999).
Once the record is changed the end date will reflect the date
of the change and the updated record will read from the date of
change until infinity.

Example:
Your current address has a validity period of 01/01/2005 to
12/31/9999 and you change your address on 05/01/2005.

The original address record will have
a validity period of : 01/01/2005 to 04/30/2005 and the new
address record you added will have a validity period of: 05/01/2005
- 12/31/9999

Updating your Personal Data during
Payroll Runs:

The system will not accept any changes to
records during a weekly or bi-weekly payroll run. During this
time if you try to make changes to your record you will receive
an error message stating that payroll is running and your record
will not be effective until payroll is complete. Effective date
of updates will need to be current or future dates.
